Grab hold of your jaw before looking down at the new Bulletstorm screenshots below. It might fall off.

It's rare that a single batch of screenshots elevates our excitement of a game from 'whatever, whenever' to 'DO WANT', but that's what's just happened. Bulletstorm's looking incredible, even if a few of these shots do look almost too good to be real.We've see a couple of these before too, but hey, when they look this good you can't complain.

Bulletstorm is a mental shooter from People Can Fly (with help from Epic's Cliff Bleszinski) that sees players rack up high scores by killing enemies in inventive and brutal ways called the Skillshot. And there's more strategy in the Skillshot than "95% of the shooters out there", according to PCF boss Adrian Chmielarz.

Silicon Valley motion-sensing technology company Canesta has announced that it is being purchased by Microsoft, with the sale due to be finalized before the end of 2010. Canesta develops 3D sensing hardware not unlike that used in Kinect, which launches next week.

The company also develops software for working with 3D tracking data, which is where we'd most likely see the deal bear fruit in terms of gaming, specifically in the evolution of Kinect's software-driven capabilities. It's also possible that the acquisition -- at least in the short-term -- is a move to head off any potential claims that Microsoft may have infringed on Canesta's patents during the development of Kinect.

Just like Nintendo's handheld games console, Sony's PlayStation Portable is doing it tough these days, sales of the machine down 50% from what they were at this time last year.
Sony handed in its Q2 2010 financial results today, and while the PlayStation 3 enjoyed a slight increase in sales over the three-month period that was Q2 2009 (3.5 million consoles sold, up from 3.2 million), the PSP tanked, going from three million last year to only 1.5 million sold over the same timeframe this year.
To put that in perspective, the PlayStation 2 sold as many units despite being over ten years old, and for 2010 as a whole has actually outsold the PSP by 100,000 units.
Sounds like a PSP2 is just the thing the doctor ordered!Plus What will happen when the Playstation Phone Hits Shelves?[Source: Kotaku]
